A reference site for the backyard or well-traveled birder on attracting, feeding and recognizing common and popular birds. Dispels myths about birds, bird feeding and housing birds. A site that is kid-friendly and hopefully educational while being slightly irreverent and humorous. Includes bird nest updates and pictures.

They Really Love Their Kids.....
Greetings and an update from observing the nest activities....
I realized, my guess was correct about the bathroom procedure. I was wondering how they keep the nest clean and sure enough, these little guys poop out a poopy that is as big as their head and mom seems to know it's coming and grabs it in her beak and flies out with it. I don't know where she puts it, but I guess it is good fertilizer, right? I think they have found the food supply I put out for them. Here is another picture of Lloyd on his favorite place to perch and another baby picture.....
And a reminder that comments are welcome and encouraged! Thanks!!
